Functional Skills

Functional skills courses in English, Maths and IT are available for all students aged 15 -18 where it is appropriate for them to have these opportunities.

“Teachers meticulously identify the gaps in students’ previous learning when they arrive. Staff plan work on an individual basis to help address these gaps. This enables students to move forward in their learning at a rapid pace. As a result, virtually all students gain valuable qualifications, GCSEs, AS and A levels or equivalent in most cases. Almost all gain recognised accreditation for English and mathematics.”Ofsted 2014
